More From Erin Morgenstern

I love smiles. that is a fact. how to develop smiles? there are a variety of smiles. some smiles are sarcastic. some smiles are artificial-diplomatic smiles. these smiles do not produce satisfaction, but rather fear or suspicion. but a genuine smile gives us hope, freshness. if we want a genuine smile, then first we must produce the basis for a smile to come.

God laughs on two occasions. he laughs when the physician says to the patient's mother, 'don't be afraid, mother; i shall certainly cure your boy.' god laughs, saying to himself, 'i am going to take his life, and this man says he will save it!' the physician thinks he is the master, forgetting that god is the master. god laughs again when two brothers divide their land with a string, saying to each other, 'this side is mine and that side is yours.' he laughs and says to himself, 'the whole universe belongs to me, but they say they own this portion or that portion.'

They say that when god was in jerusalem he forgave his murderers, but now he will not forgive an honest man for differing with him on the subject of the trinity. they say that god says to me, "forgive your enemies." i say, "i do;" but he says, "i will damn mine." god should be consistent. if he wants me to forgive my enemies he should forgive his. i am asked to forgive enemies who can hurt me. god is only asked to forgive enemies who cannot hurt him. he certainly ought to be as generous as he asks us to be.

The soul will bring forth person if god laughs into her and she laughs back to him. to speak in parable, the father laughs into the son and the son laughs back to the father; and this laughter breeds liking and liking breeds joy, and joy begets love, and love begets person, and person begets the holy ghost.

Forgiveness is an act of creation. you can choose from many ways to do it. you can forgive for now, forgive till then, forgive till the next time, forgive but give no more chances it’s a whole new game if there is another incident. you can give one more chance, give several more chances, give many chances, give chances only if. you can forgive part, all, or half of the offense. you can devise a blanket of forgiveness. you decide

I worry about fast forgivers. they tend to forgive quickly in order to avoid their pain. or they forgive fast in order to get an advantage over the people they forgive. and their instant forgiving only makes things worse... people who have been wronged badly and wounded deeply should give themselves time and space before they forgive... there is a right moment to forgive. we cannot predict it in advance; we can only get ourselves ready for it when it arrives... don't do it quickly, but don't wait too long.
